[htmltmpl] print several vars in one loop

[Offer K. <off...@gm...>]

Hi,
Say I've for got the following parameter passed to my template:
  names_loop => $names,

Where $names looks like:
 $names = 
 [
   {name => name1},
   {name => name2},
   {name => name3},
   # ... 50 such names
 ];

What do I write in my template to print 3 names per line, for example?
Is this even possible or do I have to re-arrange my data?
I tried:
   <tmpl_loop names_loop><tmpl_var name> <tmpl_var name> <tmpl_var name>
   </tmpl_loop>

But that just printed each name 3 times :-(

Thanks in advance,
